TC 50 cal Omega, 100 gr. Blackhorn 209, 240 grain XTP with Hornady green sabot

TC Hawken 50 cal, 100 gr Pyrodex RS, 370 gr Maxi Ball

If I can’t get it done with either of those two rifles, I’m gonna go back to bed and give up.😁

If my accuracy holds true for the next outing, I'll be taking the CVA Wolf SS, and using 70 gr wt of BH 209 and a 260 gr lead HP bullet encased in a black EZ load harvester sabot.

Went out to my buddy's house and shot the CVA Wolf again to check for group. Ended up with about a softball sized group altogether after making a 1" windage adjustment and a 2" height adjustment. Not bad after having to scrub the rust out of it earlier this week. I think it's going to be ok.

It honestly depends on whats still loaded from last year! It could be a custom build pacnor/Remington 45 cal smokeless or it could be a savage MLII 50 cal. I need to open the safe this week and see which one wins! LOL

I pulled mine out of the safe today to check, both are empty so I guess I gotta decide which one gets loaded by Saturday!
